The Hessen Conspiracy Page #4

Synopsis: 1945 - Castle Kronberg, outside Frankfurt, is turned into a 'country club' for victorious American officers. The cynical Colonel Jack Durant and the dazzling beautiful Lieutenant Kathleen Nash uncover the crown jewels of Germany - more diamonds, rubies, emeralds, sapphires and pearls than are gathered in any one place outside the Tower of London. Nash and Durant manage to get the gems to New York, where they must deal with gangsters to fence the loot. To make matters worse for the two renegade officers, Princess Sophie discovers the theft of her jewels and complains to American army headquarters. It now turns out that her brother fought for the Allies and is about to marry the future Queen of England. With double-crossing gangland figures trying to control the gems and the army closing in on them, will Kathy Nash and Jack Durant stay true to one other and their plan? Or will one sell the other out?

No need.

She don't speak English.

You say sir when you address me.

This is still the goddamn army.

Sir.

Are you out of your mind?

How do you know no one saw you?

You know I'm going to say

I don't know what you mean, sir.

What's next?

You going to throw her off a cliff?

You don't get it, do you?

I did you a favour.

Me?

All of us.

You said it yourself

the man was a goddamn Nazi.

Were you gonna share with a Nazi?

We are going to be sharing,

aren't we... sir?

You are going to get what's coming to you

when I say so

and not one f***ing second before.

I am a goddamn colonel.

You are a piece of sh*t.

All right, now...

Listen, Sergeant.

I need you to just hold on a little bit,

and I guarantee

you will get what is coming to you.

Yeah, says who, sir? You?

Roy, isten to me.

We are in this thing together.

Like it or not,

for better for worse, for richer for poorer.

You think I'm gonna cheat you?

How the hell am I gonna cheat you?

I finger you, you finger me.

What we got here is a Mexican standoff.

She thinks you're cute.

Says she'll do you for free... sir.

Suddenly it wasn't a game.

Nash, Pallard, Tarlton,

everyone wanted their slice of the pie

and I had to slice it for them.

Spoils of war.

The first thing I had to figure

was how to get rid of Tarlton.

I couldn't push him off a cliff, God knows,

but there had to be some way

I could level the playing field.

...that someone was with him at the moat.

- Does the name Tarlton ring any bells?

- What's the matter with you?

The carp were eating him.

Alright,

let me ask you another question, doc,

completely unrelated alright?

Have you ever been to Paris?

Ever been stationed in Paris?

You ever been laid in Paris?

Who do they belong to?

We're confiscating

the Nazi war machine, Dave.

You're not confiscating an ything.

You're crazy.

The pair of you, you are crazy.

'Don't cut me out, Colonel.

I was with you at Omaha Beach.'

Your words, Dave.

But the goddamn crown jewels

of an entire country?

I mean you probably can't even add up

what this is worth. They're...

How're you gonna move a million dollars?

It's tens of millions, right doll?

'If you wanna cut through Army red tape

Dave Pallard's your man.'

Also your words.

Listen, we need you.

We can't hold onto this stuff any longer.

We're likely to get caught.

You got that right.

We're gonna have to get rid of them

in the States.

And how do you propose

that we are going

to get rid of them stateside?

Yeah, that's risky too.

Well, we're boosting

the crown jewels of Germany.

We're gonna wind up risking something.

And if we get caught with so much

as a Cracker Jack,

we're all gonna end up in Alcatraz.
